The Latest Treatment for Recovering Function of Atrophic Kidneys

Kidneys are important organs responsible for filtering blood and discharging metabolic products as well as maintaining the balance of water and electrolyte balance in body.

What are the causes of atrophic kidneys?

Nephron loss and decreased blood supply to kidneys are the common causes of atrophic kidneys. Each kidney is composed of one to two million nephrons which are the functional units of kidneys. Compression to kidneys or some diseases that can affect the nephron function can lead to nephron loss. As for renal ischemia, when the blood flowing to kidneys declines, the kidneys can not get insufficient oxgen and nutrients supply. As a result, the renal cells will die leading to atrophic kidneys.
